What do I need to take on my 3 day field geology trip?

At 8am tomorrow we leave for the Llano uplift, from Austin. What am I forgetting? So far I have:
2 pairs of socks
Shorts
Tshirt
Swimming trunks
Towel
Toothbrush & toothpaste
Axe anti perspirant
100% DEET insect repellent (I've actually read that it's not safe, so I may not take it)
3L Camelbak
CRKT KISS


Update: Well that trip is long gone, and so is the second trip, so I'm resurrecting this thread to play identify this skull. We found it on a ranch we were looking at some formations in and no one else claimed it, so I put it in a bag and brought it home. I'm jealous of the guy who found a small deer skull with antlers intact.

The TAs are getting alcohol but they are also checking ID. I'm 20 until July :(.

Btw, I also bought this olive green hat today... One of those ones that Australians wear. Should I use it or will a dark colored hat make my head hotter? I don't know because I usually don't wear hats.

in reference to the skull.

no more pics of the skull than there is, I'd guess either a young javalina or some sort of dog breed (prarie dog, fox, young coyote, or something along those lines)
